Obituary:  True crime writer Shanna Hogan, only 38, died on September 1 in her swimming pool, and she was unable to be revived.  A number of her organs were donated.  I am assuming this is why her death wasn't announced until today.

Hogan, Arizona-based, wrote books on Jodi Arias and Marjorie Orbin.

Matt says he pulled his wife of 20 years from the water and gave her CPR.
